“These are really good! I sliced a bunch of skin on russet  potatoes and did the first step with all of them (par frying), then finished frying the first half and froze the rest. I’m frying the second half now, probably 2 or 3 months later. They are equally del” — a cook, 5.0★
“I don’t usually leave reviews  but I wanted to thank you for this French fry recipe.  I’ve soaked potatoes in the past,  but frying them at 300, then again at 400… they were next level. Hands down best fries I’ve made. Can’t wait to show these off to my buddie” — a cook, 5.0★
